Roon makes Yamaha Steinberg USB ASIO unavailable in other (audio) applications

Support

The behavior is exectly the same as before:

  1. I play a FLAC 44.1kHz 16bit, no problem
  2. If I then want to play a FLAC 96kHz 24bit, I get the message “Roon lost control of the Audio device”. After that disappears ea second click on play starts the track.
  3. The same message appears if I go back to the track of 1. With the same working: hitting play again starts the track.

The message only appears with a change of sampling rate (44.1 to 48 etc.), not with a change in bit depth (16 to 24).

Also if I am in the Queue, choose “Play from here” and the message appears, the Queue disappears, as if I click on the back-arrow,

I am now using: Windows 10 PC with “Roon version 1.8 (build 764) stable (64bit)” and “Roon Optimized Core Kit with Roon version 1.8 (build 764)”. The audio device is Steinberg UR22mkII with Yamaha/Steinberg USB Driver v2.0.4. This whole setup is comparable with the setup before, but with updated software versions.
